The AEM-3 replaces drives utilizing the Honeywell Bull HISI drive interface. The AEM-1 replaces drives utilizing the SMD, SMD-O, SMD-H, SMD-E, and XMD drive interfaces. If you are unable to determine the interface type of the drive you wish to replace, or are unable to find information about your aging computer system, contact Arraid for assistance or to request a custom engineered replacement. Arraid supplies new drive replacements for SMD, HISI, HPIB, MAC, OMTI, Pertec, XMD, and several other legacy drive replacements, including floppy drive replacements as well as SCSI-1 and SCSI-2 drives. Large computer companies (DEC, Encore, Honeywell, IBM, Wang, etc.) are commonly unable or unwilling to support these specialized systems. Our products are used extensively throughout business and government, where Customers have incurred a large investment in special hardware and unique, non-portable software. Arraid is the original manufacturer of the AEM, and TES drive replacement product lines.
Replacing them with a new Arraid system will prolong the life and restore the reliability of aging computer systems. Aging and refurbished Disk and Tape Drives are typically the weakest links in a legacy computer system.
